Bend Open Pocket Card

I’m so thrilled to share this fun fold card with you today! First of all green is my favorite color. But look at the prettiness (is that a word?) of these images?

This gorgeous cake image is in a stamp set called Happy Birthday to You and is from the free Sale-a-Bration offerings this year. Yes! The entire stamp set is FREE when you place an order of $50+ during Sale-a-Bration. And as of February 4th, you can get the Birthday Dies that coordinate with images in this stamp set. So of course I had to create right away when I got my order. And I came up with this Bend Open Pocket Card and shared it on Wednesday during my Facebook Live Online Paper Crafting Class.

I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the card that I demonstrated.
